    Summary

    Shouto gets hit with a sex quirk and figures he’ll just wait it out. The pain is… manageable. And he doesn’t really have another option, except the one (the two) he absolutely refuses to consider lest he jeopardize their friendship.

    He’d much rather pretend that nothing is wrong. He’s fine.

    Summary

    Shouta’s plan had been ill-defined and desperate from the start, but he figures the important shit boiled down to, “Change as little as possible, make sure Midoriya doesn’t get himself killed, and stock up on lychee jelly pouches because that flavor got discontinued three years from now.” Keeping it simple’s always better, and he’s normally good at improvising.

    Somewhere along the way, he must’ve fucked up since now he has:

    A quirkless problem child hanging off of his every word

    His best friend going through a sexuality crisis thanks to said problem child’s mom

    His other best friend clinging to him like a security blanket

    Some two-bit mob boss threatening him with bouquets of daffodils

    To wring the number one hero’s fucking neck for not telling him anything useful before sending him decades into the past

    All he did was walk Izuku Midoriya home. It wasn’t meant to turn into whatever mess this is.

    Summary

    Aizawa Shouta knew, fundamentally, that his quirk could be useful when it came to helping others; however, after his parents died and a few, unsuccessful jaunts around the foster-care system later, he comes to realise that the world of heroes isn’t for him.

    Because heroes only showed up some of the time; then, if you were lucky, they’d rush onto the scene, seek their glory in defeating villains and then vanish behind a screen of adoring-fans, TV cameras and fame… leaving the ordinary people behind to sift through the fragments of their broken lives themselves.

    No one had saved him from the ruthless reality of being an orphan too old and too damaged to be adopted and no one gave a damn about the shady area ensconcing the care-centre he was raised in either, and so, he decides to give a damn.

    What follows are the tales of Café Owner Aizawa who hasn’t adopted several kids, intimidated the local gangs, scared off the pimps and caused multiple villains and heroes to catch feels for him, no sir; he just serves drinks, provides decent food and helps struggling students with their homework.

    It’d be irrational to think otherwise…

    Summary

    "Why are you like this?” Bakugou exclaims, throwing his hands up in the air.

    He’s not sure if the question is rhetorical at his own expense or if Bakugou’s actually wondering—the look on his face is almost identical in both cases.

    Before Shouto can even open his mouth to respond—he’s waffling between “Like what?” for maximum Bakugou-annoyance or “It’s the trauma.” because of the one time it made Kaminari laugh so hard he cried—Bakugou is already talking over him, scrubbing a hand down his face and sighing like talking to Shouto is the hardest thing he’s ever done.

    “Don’t fuckin’ answer that. I know why you’re like this.”

    Problem solved. Shouto says nothing.

    *

    Or, a temporary team-up leads to certain feelings-based revelations for both reluctantly involved parties. A conversation is also had. Sort of.

    Shouto is of the opinion that they should just kiss about it before they do anything else.
